Eco League

The Eco League
is a consortium of six colleges and universities that share missions
based on environmental responsibility and social change. All of them
have strong Environmental Studies, Environmental Science and Outdoor
Education programs. Small classes with personal attention are emphasized
along with experiential education that provides students real world
experience. The Eco League gives students the opportunity to spend a
semester at a different school to experience a different part of the
country, different faculty, and different ways of thinking.

Participating Schools:

Alaska Pacific University (Anchorage, AK)

College of the Atlantic (Bar Harbor, ME)

Dickinson College (Carlisle, PA)

Green Mountain College (Poultney, VT)

Northland College (Ashland, WI)

Prescott College (Prescott, AZ)

How the Eco League Works

Eco League is open to students in any academic area.

Students may spend up to two, non-sequential semester at other Eco League institutions during their sophomore and junior years.

Students continue to pay full-time tuition to their home
institution. Lab, course fees and room and board are paid to the host
institution. Travel costs are covered by the student.

Credits earned at Eco League institution are transferred back to the home institution.

Students are expected to return to their home institution after their Eco League semester.
